Green House
Green houses, like hydro gardens, allow you to control the weather. This makes it possible
for you to grow whatever you want whenever you want.
Choosing your kind of greenhouse will depend almost entirely on your finances and the area you
have. You can select a Smaller, portable greenhouse that is affordable for most folks or you may go with a
custom-built greenhouse that can range from semi affordable to ridiculous.
Specialty greenhouses are available that let you grow plants a window or even your basement. Hobby
greenhouses can be constructed or purchased to fit anyone's needs.
The foundation of your greenhouse can be constructed of wood, metal supports, concrete block,
cement, brick, etc.. A persons budget and fondness for gardening generally are two big factors when picking a
foundation.
Floors range from dirt with a weed screen to concrete slabs. Again, decisions are usually made
based on budget and how much a person likes to garden.
Framing material for the green house can be wood, PVC, or even aluminum. One nice thing about
aluminum is that it is nearly maintenance free.
Each type of green house covering has advantages and disadvantages. Consider things like the amount
of maintenance required to maintain it? Does it allow the full spectrum of sunlight to get in? How
durable is it? How much insulation does it provide (R factor)?
